I may have missed it when reading the logs, if so, sorry about that, but I would like to know if there is a way to set a field, let us call it "process run"  Ok let me give you some details on this.

a process run may have several "work orders" or sets of parts/items in it, so it will have several separate entries in the log  such as:

date##, run123, part 1, quantity, comment

date##, run123, part2, quantity, comment

date##, run123, part3, quantity, comment

date##, run123, part4, quantity, comment

I thought perhaps to have them use the reply function to add the other 3 items of the same run, and that would work if I could find a way to set 'process run' to auto increment, say perhaps, when the next 'New' entry was entered.  Is there something in place that can already do this?  If this is possible, I thought I would see if I can change the button for 'New' to something like 'New Run' and reply to 'Add Workorder' or something along that line so there is no confusion when entering the data.

Any suggestions you might provide are greatfully accepted.
